This base is perfect for socks! The nylon gives it a bit of extra strength and the superwash wool makes it so easy to care for. One skein is usually enough for a pair of socks, but you'll want to check your pattern for yardage requirements.

We use colorfast acid dyes and rinse all our yarns our own special woolwash blend to give it a smooth hand, a soothing smell and to help protect it from fiber-eaters.
